Abriendo Brecha IV: An Activist Scholarship Conference
The University of Texas at Austin
22-24 February 2007
The College of Liberal Arts, The Center for African and African American Studies, The Office of Diversity and Community Engagement, and The Teresa Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies are pleased to announce the fourth annual conference on Activist Scholarship in the Americas.
Abriendo Brecha draws together scholars, activists, artists and others whose research and creative intellectual work is developed and carried out in alignment with communities, organizations, movements or networks working for social justice. This year’s conference theme is “Public Education, Marginalized Publics, and the Politics of Insurgency.” We want to explore how research, and intellectual and artistic production can engage with issues of public education, broadly defined.
